Thoughts on the Garrick S6 ?
Has anyone else seriously looked at the Garrick S6? I'm really loving the design on these. To me it has vibes of the Chopard L.U.C 1860, or some Breguet influence, and that is a good thing. Granted the base movement is an ETA 6498 (which isn't a complaint), but the custom work on the bridges is stunning. And I seriously through I was reading it wrong, because I was aware of the S2 Deadbeat seconds which is ~$24k, but these are in the $7k-$9k USD range and are completely bespoke to your specifications. Is there anything else on the market like this at this price point from an independent?

Nice find! It reminds me of another brand I recently came across called Laine that has a similar price point. Apparently they’re more bespoke where you can pick your dial color indices, hands, and movement engraving. Pretty cool stuff although I don’t know if I’d be able to plunk 7-10k on a young independent.
Incredible for this price I am shocked.
Thanks interesting piece

Habring2 Erwin series at the $7k range with its dead beat seconds would be my personal pick in this category.

I am aware of Laine, and think they fall into this category, and I love the micro-rotor, but I think they are a little higher in price, starting at $13k USD, so that is lower than a lot of other options, but still significantly higher than the Garrick's starting point of $7k. Again, just my opinion.

Yep I got the conversion wrong, they start at $11,400 usd. Good catch. Still a similar aesthetic and a lower tier than many other similars like Felipe Pikullik.
Would love to know anyone who bought the Garrick, found them because of their Fears Collab but that one is like £19K. Also would love to get a Habring as well, but haven't ever seen one in the flesh
